Default Feedback on GSR Turbo Setup

Stock JDM B18C1

Head:
New Valve stem seals everything else stock with GSR cams

Block:
Fresh hone
New OEM rings
Stock Bore
ACL bearings
ARP Head Studs
Stock rods and pistons
Cometic Head Gasket

Turbo Setup:
Spoolin Log Mani and dumptube
2.5in Downpipe (still on the fence about it, but its free so I was thinking of running it)
RC 550cc Injectors
Ebay Turbo 57 Trim (I know I know but we'll see how it goes)
2.5in IC piping
Mishimoto Z Line Intercooler
Tial 38mm Wastegate (10psi spring)
HKS SSQV BOV
B+R Fittings Oil Feed and Return Kit (with oil restrictor for shitty turbo)
Walbro 255LPH Fuel Pump
Oil Pressure and Boost Gauge
AEM Wideband
P75 Vtec added Not sure what to tune on yet

Other Misc:

Looking for 300whp with the stock motor setup. I have another full GSR motor that I may build on the side in case this one blows. Also just running that turbo cause its cheap until I find another one. Let me know your opinions and any input. Thanks

looks good. id go with a stage 2 clutch, oem headgasket though. 3in exhaust would help but 2.5 is ok for now. For a good reference check out..

Yea headgasket I had from another build that I didnt use it for. Clutch was bought last year before I had turbo dreams, its rated at 240 and its gonna be a daily so we'll see. I have a 3in exhaust on the car now and have the 2.5in downpipe that i got free. I was gonna replace the exhaust and run straight through (no cat) 2.5in cause I keep getting tickets for loud exhaust, throwing a vibrant black muffler on there for the stealth look too.

looks like a decent setup, on those injectors with a good tuner you should be able to safely achieve 350whp or so, good luck on the turbo, it is a costly gamble, but many people have tried it, it should be a fun setup though

Yea I figure its 100 bucks brand new and if it blows I'll buy a tried and true brand. Yea I guess I could always put the downpipe on and run it for now and still order a new 3in from spoolin. You guys retune for bigger DP or is it not needed?

Yea the car was previously turboed Y7 with greddy kit and 3in exhaust, I think 2in downpipe. It was definitely quieter but the cops around here just love to pull me over but maybe the stealth black muffler would help.
